Norbs motor is not your typical motor Just Like Norbs isnt a Typical engine guy! He Creates things! Its not at all a stock system & yes its a oil return. Could be a few of them for all I know. Haven't been to the garage in a while.
he posts here as well but mostly in the Toronto section over there. he is a Very Creative guy!!

Looks like a stage block. It might not have provisions for oil drain return. But now it does.

Yes its a stage block & I know he has an external oiling system that he showed me one day. PM him & I'm sure he is happy to explain it here.

Its the Dutweiller external oil pump with a return line -8 from the bypass. YOu can either put it in the pan or anywhere else to return the excess oil, fuel pump plate was easier.
